Parisienne Walkways As a performer whose lengthy career touched upon blues, hard rock, jazz-rock, heavy metal and pop music, the Montreux Jazz Festival was the perfect platform for an artist such as Gary Moore. Via his work with (the original) Skid Row, Colosseum 2, Thin Lizzy, BBM and Greg Lake among others, also an extremely successful run of solo hits, Moore got to achieve all of his goals and many more. He collaborated with such giant names as George Harrison, Albert Collins, Bob Dylan, BB King, Paul Rodgers, Jack Bruce, Albert King and Keith Emerson among various luminaries. Gary loved playing at Montreux and was always open to offers of playing there. The festival’s eclectic booking policy served as a reflection of the diversity of his own particular taste in music. A while after a fourth appearance at Montreux in a little over a decade Gary spoke of his enduring love of the event. “The best thing about playing at Montreux is that you’re alongside so many great musicians, people like Larry Carlton (Grammy-winning US guitarist),” he told me. “Not only that, but when you’re there you become totally immersed in music. The whole town becomes part of the festival – and it’s not just jazz, there’s great variety. Walking down the street you’ll hear blues and American college big bands, rock and pop. I saw Roni Size (UK-based drum and bass artist) there, which was great. “It’s such a beautiful location,” he concluded, “and of course Claude Nobs has been a great champion of all forms of music for so many years. Long may he continue to remain so.” As an individual lucky enough to have paid a visit to the festival, back in 2003, let me confirm everything that Gary says. Set on the imposing shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland, the Montreux Jazz Festival was established in 1967 by its enthusiastic and much-loved curator Claude Nobs – later immortalized for all time as “Funky Claude” in Deep Purple’s 1972 standard ‘Smoke On The Water’ – and has since become one of the premiere live music events in the world. When Gary Moore arrived at Montreux in 2010 for what would be his final time, he did so as part of a European festival mini-jaunt dubbed the ‘Summer Of Rock’ that also included spots at Norway’s Trondheim Festival, Sweden Rock and the inaugural High Voltage Festival in London, along with Emerson Lake & Palmer, 71 Top and Foreigner. Moore was in a good place, musically speaking. He was thrilled that his latest release, ‘Bad For You Baby’, had been nominated for Album Of The Year by the American Blues Foundation. He was also just home from a successful blues-orientated tour of Russia and the Far East. The agenda for Moore’s ‘Summer Of Rock’ gigs could not have been any more different. Having declared his blues activities ‘on summer recess’ and after reuniting with Neil Carter, the former Wild Horses/UFO guitarist and keyboard player that had featured on many of his biggest solo songs, Gary put together a band that featured Jon Noyce (ex-Jethro Tull) on bass and regular collaborator Darrin Mooney (Primal Scream) on drums, describing it as “a re-energised line-up”. Together they locked themselves away and began working up a live set based upon a selection of tunes from the ‘Wild Frontier’ and ‘After The War’ periods of the late-1980s. For Gary Moore aficionados this represented something of a treat. Despite regular requests to do so, with the odd exception the material concerned had not been performed live for almost twenty years. Better still, Gary had also composed a handful of brand new songs that were in the same Celtic rock-style vein. These, too, would be included in the set. Moore arrived at Montreux 2010 revitalized after a holiday and full of optimism, taking his place on a bill that also included Simply Red, Missy Elliott, Phil Collins playing 60s Motown and Soul, Massive Attack, Roxy Music, Norah Jones, Billy Idol, John McLaughlin and Billy Cobham, Mark Knopfler, Tori Amos, Joe Bonamassa, De La Soul, Herbie Hancock, Paco de Lucia and Katie Melua – a diverse gathering of talent by just about anybody’s standards! Documented on the CD that you now hold, Gary and his band-mates sound well-drilled and full of vigor during a display that took place within the ornate splendor of the Auditorium Stravinski. Moore throws himself into ‘Over The Hills And Far Away’ with a blistering lead solo. ‘Military Man’, a song written by his boyhood friend Philip Lynott, is instantly recognizable as the handiwork of that great artist. The evening’s first new track, ‘Days Of Heroes’, taps back into the spirit of Thin Lizzy’s ‘Emerald’. By contrast, ‘Where Are You Now’ is much more sedate though no less classy. Backed by the atmospheric keys of its co-composer Neil Carter, it’s fabulous to hear Gary performing ‘Empty Rooms’ once more. The show then revs back up again with another of the new additions, ‘Oh Wild One’ – a further example of the type of guitar-fueled anthems to rebellious, mysterious heroes that both Moore and Thin Lizzy have always been able to make sound so darned believable. The next song, ‘Blood Of Emeralds’, is another Moore/Carter tune that’s still remembered fondly by the fans for having closed the ‘After The War’ album in raucously memorable fashion, also for being a tribute to Philip Lynott, who had passed a few years before its release. The mood of euphoria continues. ‘Out In The Fields’ is an impassioned protest song about the religious turmoil of his homeland. The set draws to a conclusion with ‘Johnny Boy’, a hypnotic, mellow piece of music from ‘Wild Frontier’, before Lynott and Moore’s all-time classic ‘Parisienne Walkways’, a simmering, evergreen tribute to this French capital city and its associated sense of romance. Lasting for 11 minutes in this particular instance, it can rarely have been performed any better, nor welcomed with more gusto. Tragically, Moore died of a heart attack during a getaway break in Spain on 6 February, 2011 – seven months to the day after this Montreux gig. The world of rock music was stricken with grief. There were tributes from Ozzy Osbourne, Tony lommi, Bob Geldof, Roger Taylor, Scott Gorham, Glenn Hughes, Zakk Wylde and Bryan Adams and many more, even from the realm of extreme metal thanks to Opeth’s Mikael Äkerfeldt. When Europe played at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London shortly afterwards, their guitarist John Norum offered an affectionate rendition of ‘The Loner’, the Max Middleton song that Gary had recorded to such emotional effect on ‘Wild Frontier’. Neil Carter, who only the previous summer had reconnected with Moore through the teaching of music at a school attended by all three of the latter’s children, was especially distraught. “We were due to go into the studio next week. Gary had some ideas for an album – a Celtic rock album – and we were going to start working on those,” Neil informed Classic Rock, referring to the likes of ‘Days Of Heroes’, ‘Where Are You Now’ and ‘Oh Wild One’. “I hesitate to use the word genius but there was something otherworldly about Gary. He was a truly gifted individual. I shall miss him a lot.” Though the likes of Metallica’s Kirk Hammett, Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard and the late Randy Rhoads (of Ozzy Osbourne, Quiet Riot fame) and more have all cited his playing as an influence upon their own techniques, the 58-year-old was a modest and unassuming man – especially so during the final years of his life. “I don’t think I’m undervalued (as an artist); I’ve had all the accolades that I could wish for,” he told me back in July 2006. “I’ve felt overrated sometimes, not underrated. Being called a legend makes me cringe.” Well, now there’s very little choice in the matter ~ Dave Ling, Classic Rock Magazine, London, 2011 SHIPPING TO USA ONLY Buyer Pays Shipping $3.99 1st CD $3.99… each additional $1.50 CDs will only be combined with other CDs or DVDs To qualify for the combined discount, all items must be purchased together, paid for with 1 payment, and shipped all together in 1 shipment.
